EL SEGUNDO, CA--(Marketwired - Sep 19, 2013) - Fuhu, Inc., the creators of award-winning nabi tablet, announces that four of its exclusive solutions for the nabi tablet have been named 2013 National Parenting Publications Award (NAPPA) Gold winners, recognized for their innovative and unique way to enrich children's educational and entertaining experiences.

The National Parenting Publications Awards (NAPPA) is one of the most respected awards programs in the family market. NAPPA enlists a panel of independent, expert judges and parent testers who carefully evaluate hundreds of submissions. Only the best-of-the-best are chosen to receive an award for quality, innovation and entertainment and educational value.

Fuhu sweeps 4 Gold Awards with its patent-pending nabi Time Controls™, the world's first character based time management solution; Wings Learning System™, the first tablet based adaptive learning system that personalizes courseware to each child's proficiency; patent-pending Monarch OS, an Android software overlay that allows two modes designed for children's digital safety; and Treasure Box, a kid-friendly app store that helps parents teach children to make the right choices by teaching them purchasing and money management through nabi's virtual currency, nabi Coins.

"Being awarded with one Gold Award by one of the most trusted awards program by parents is a privilege. To be recognized with four Gold Awards by NAPPA for our innovative solutions is overwhelming," said Jim Mitchell, CEO of Fuhu. "As parents ourselves, Fuhu is dedicated to solutions that will enrich children's experiences as they learn, play and grow while providing the parents with innovative tools to manage and guide their children."

"Parents look to NAPPA to recommend the best products for their children, which is why our judges meticulously test and evaluate each submission to make sure they deliver only the best of the best," says Julie Kertes, NAPPA General Manager.

This year, 50 products were selected to receive the coveted Gold Award from the Children's Products competition, which identifies and awards the best toys, books, games, music, DVDs and virtual products. An additional 75 received Silver and Honors awards. Past virtual winners include products from Activision's Skylanders, Microsoft's Xbox and Mattel.
